Re: More Than A Hollywood Story
Winning is winning. It doesn't say what the point difference was on the trophy mate.
Winning the league is hard, money alone is not enough. It helps sure but it won't get you anywhere on it's own. City's squad deserved the league because they worked hard and beat United to the league, something other teams in England just simply forgot how to do.
You have to give credit because the players put in the effort and were rewarded. Money has nothing to do with it because in the end 11 players go out on the pitch and have to prove that they want it more than the other team.
BTW, why does everyone use Sam Allerdyce logic? lol, no not any manager can win the league. If Alex McLeish were in charge at City they wouldn't have won the league.

I credit the players, Kompany, Aguero and Yaya in particular were amazing. What I don't get is all the praise for Mancini and the talk that Man City as a club, not a group of players, deserved this trophy. They made it look much harder than it shoud have been.

Re: More Than A Hollywood Story
I should point out something..... Man Utd got 89 points.
Thats more than they got than thier " greatest ever team herp derp" with Tevez, Rooney and CR upfront.....
Man Utd got 9 more points than they did last season, yes individually they aint that great but they deserve some credit for pushing this City side all the way...
Not many teams have needed 89 points in a 38 game season to win the league, i dont care how much money they have spent they still deserve credit.
Also Utd's first eleven costs more than City's does..... just sayin.

Maybe they made it look harder than it seemed because it was as hard as it seemed.

The people bitching about Man City are morons....Success in football is based on money, if you haven't picked up on that by now you haven't been paying attention

City's first eleven and sub's cost 40m more but i think you will find when you put the two starting eleven's together its practically the same.....
also
This the bitching is hilarious every single team in football history bought success in some way..... City just needed to spend shit loads to build a squad big deal....
Who cares really

I think people are more upset with how they acquired the money and their position before said money was involved.

That's probably the case but honestly partically every club in England has money coming in from outside.
Pretty hypocritical tbh.

True. I think it has to do with how the media licked Mous arse and loved Abra because he went to every home game.
The media here just don't like Mancini like they loved Mou.

Re: More Than A Hollywood Story
Interesting fact - Bayern this season also collected more points than they would have needed to win the BL on average. Dortmund also managed some whopping record points. Funnily, so did Real Madrid in the Spanish league.Great Leader Sprucenuce wrote:Not many teams have needed 89 points in a 38 game season to win the league, i dont care how much money they have spent they still deserve credit.
I just hope it is not a sign of the better teams now really running away in BL and PL, too.

Lol i remember that too, although iam happy with how the club is run.....
I think it can give us relative success and if we win a trophy during Ashley's tenure i would feel alot more proud than if we " bought it".....
Despite the fact i have defended City i dont want us ever going down that route.

I'd argue its because Liverpool keep paying for us to buy more players :lucas :
On the first point it's rumoured if Krul is to leave ( which seems nigh on impossible) that we would buy Al-Habsi to replace him :vagi:
